Jim, i was referring to my self inflicted frustration for not noticing what looked obvious (to me) in the first place; not expecting such zealous assumption to be hijacked .
As i started by mentioning the Allen & Thurber in my previous post, of which i didn't include a picture because their typical stocks are not the type of Phil's or British examples. For the matter, it is only the firing system that counts.
For perusal, here is a number, among many, of Liege pepper boxes from my little book "Pistolets et Revolvers de poche au XIXème siècle".

Thanks Fernando, I would have never have thought that's what you meant. With these pictures I now realize I have never seen a Belgian example, and I had thought that they basically copied the forms and patterns of other countries. I do appreciate the explanation and illustration, and helps to learn the differences here.
